Many people collect modern U.S. commemorative coins for the pure joy of collecting.
They own the coins because they like them, not because of the mintage figures or everyone else's opinions of the design. In this case, the decision to buy or not is personal.
If you are buying commemorative coins for a profit, there are few options. Here are my top picks for commemorative coinage to own if you plan to make a profit while collecting.
UNCIRCULATED HALF DOLLARS
Since 1982, there were 29 uncirculated commemorative half dollars created. I recommend the following coins (not certified by a grading service) for their upside profit potential.
• Clad 1996-S Half Dollar, Swimming, Unc. price: $65, 49,533 minted
• Clad 1996-S Half Dollar, Olympic Soccer, Unc. price $35, 52,836 minted.
• Clad 2020-S Half Dollar, Basketball colorized, Unc. price $45, 13,635 minted
